Starting the Pandora server
Posted by Lord Kendji on March 29, 2010 at 12:28Hi,
I have a new problem, it seems that I can’t get the server to start, I got the console up and running.
I try to follow the Pandora 3.0 Documentation:Installing, but when I enter “/etc/init.d/pandora_server start” in my Ubuntu Terminal.
I get this when I try the command:
:~# /etc/init.d/pandora_server startPandora FMS Server 3.0 Build 091216 Copyright (c) 2004-2009 ArticaST

Wow…Thats a problem with the installer.
Try to install from a “physical drive” that sometimes happen when try to install from a mapped drive or network source.
Anyway, over what windows version are you installing the agent ?
WinXPHome and Win7Enterprise(does not display the error message, though refuses to work in the same manner
EDIT: Gives the same error though I launch it from “physical drive” (desktop).

Agent won’t work on Windows 7 (not yet), in XP should work fine, do you have install permissions ?, try to install under Administrator account.
Anyway there is a “manual” installation method provided in documentacion:
a) Copy all contents of the agent (take from a currently working windows agent).
b) Install the service witn pandoraagent.exe –install (use –help to see other options).I hope this helps to install your agent in the XP box.
